Safety

FlowTank is scuba equipment. Used correctly it opens up the shallows, but breathing compressed air underwater can cause serious injury or death. Before you buy or use any Flow product, read and follow our User Manual & Safety Guidelines.

Who can use FlowTank: adults aged 18 and over who hold a current scuba certification from a recognised agency (e.g. PADI or SSI Open Water) and are fit to dive.

The 5 golden rules

  1. Never go deeper than 3 metres (2 metres with the Full Face Mask).
  2. Never hold your breath. Breathe normally and ascend slowly.
  3. Never dive alone.
  4. Check your gear and air before every dive.
  5. Fill only with clean breathing air, outdoors, away from fumes.

Why breath-holding is dangerous: air in your lungs expands as you rise. Holding your breath on the way up can tear your lungs and force air into your bloodstream, even from just 1 metre deep.

In an emergency call 000 and tell them it was a diving incident.
